Established in 2018, the Office of the University Ombuds is an informal, confidential, neutral and independent resource that helps members of the campus community navigate difficult situations without fear of retaliation or judgement. Neal Powless G’08 serves as the University Ombuds.

The survey seeks to gather input from individuals who have utilized the office’s services as well as those who have not. Survey results will help ensure that the Office of the University Ombuds continues to be a valuable and effective presence on campus that meets the needs of our students, staff and faculty.

Questions about the survey should be directed ir@syr.edu. For more information about University Ombuds, email ombuds@syr.edu.
